  1. Physical Science Semester 2 2012-13

  2. Week of 1/28 – 2/1 • Entry Task FOR THE WEEK. Write a sentence for each! • Explain the difference between kinetic and potential energy. • Trace the energy from the sun to solar panels to your morning toast. • Give an example of chemical energy. • How is energy different than matter?

  3. Week of 2/4-2/8

  4. 2/11/13 • Entry Task • Why is science important?

  5. 2/12/13 • Entry Task • What is a simple machine? • Read and take notes from pages 158-170. • Definition and Notes for EACH of the 6 simple machines: pulley, wheel/axle, ramp, wedge, screw, lever

  6. 2/13/13 • Entry Task • Give an example of a simple machine you have used recently (has to be one of the 6 - pulley, wheel/axle, ramp, wedge, screw, lever)

  7. 2/14/13 • Entry Task • Describe the simple machines in a can opener. Yes, there is more than one. • Watch a movie including a simple machine. • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1K_U1OSZCgs

  8. 2/19/13 • Entry Task • Find and write down a definition of WORK from your physical science text book. • Watch and take notes on Energy and Simple Machines on C-Notes to staple IN YOUR NOTEBOOK !

  9. Simple Machine? • Demonstration: Book – weight and inclined plane • Use string around book and spring scale; record force necessary to lift book • Predict – drag the book up this ramp, will it take more or less force? (get ramp from Mr. Mann) • Is this ramp a simple machine? Why?

  10. 2/20/13 • Entry Task • Find a definition of FORCE. Write the book definition. Rewrite in your own words. • Review ENERGY QUIZZES! • Complete a reflection if you would like a better score… • MANDATORY reflections for scores of 15 or less!

  11. 2/21/13 • Entry Task • If you know the effort force and you know the resistance force, how do you calculate the mechanical advantage? HINT: look at example on page 160.

  12. Simple Machine? • Divide paper into 2 columns: machine and not machine • Rotate objects amongst the tables • sorting objects - scissors, pliers, can opener, screws, blunt knife, eraser, pencil, chalk, paper, ruler, ball, book, staple remover, C-clamp, jar lid • What criteria did you use to determine whether it is a machine?

  13. Mechanical Advantage • Lift the book with the spring scale and record the resistance force. • Lift the book using a push or pull on a simple machine (lever, pulley, or inclined plane) and record the effort force. • Calculate mechanical advantage: MA = Fr/Fe • How many times easier was the task with the simple machine?

  14. 2/22/13 • Entry Task • Say Something Nice • Please turn in your entry task sheet!!

  15. 2/25/13 • Entry Task • Compare the FORCE IN NEWTONS of lifting the book WITHOUT a simple machine and WITH a simple machine?

  16. Today’s Work • Finish Simple Machine Lab • For each simple machine you try, calculate the MECHANICAL ADVANTAGE = Fr/Fe • You will turn in a paper with at least 3 completed calculation of MA (lever, pulley, ramp) • Finished? Please read pages 1-6 in small green books “Force and Motion”

  17. 2/26/13 • Entry Task • What does SPEED mean? Write a book definition and then explain in your own words.

  18. SPEED • Finish reading pages 1-6. • Answer all questions on page 6. • Extra time? Complete challenge assignment!

  19. 2/27/13 • Entry Task • How do scientific ideas change over time? What influences the ideas?

  20. Discuss Answers • Scientists make predictions, conduct tests and share their results. • Some of the predictions have evidence to be correct and others have evidence to be incorrect. • Other scientists consider the results and conduct other tests and share those results. • Over a long number of years, the knowledge grows and changes.

  21. Take Notes! • You will be making a timeline from the information in this movie. • NOTES: • WHO - people, • WHAT - contributionsto scientific ideasAND political issues/ gender constraints of the era • WHERE - countrywhere they conducted their work, • WHEN - YEAR(s) of effort • WHY – why was this discovery important?

  22. 2/28/13 • Entry Task • What is a TIMELINE?

  23. Discuss Answers • A timeline is a graphic representation of the passage of time as a line. Either vertical like facebook or horizontal… • EXAMPLE • http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-zr2Mh-uoWfg/T6BQf69mDLI/AAAAAAAACmk/l_QQlVJ-sis/s1600/Timeline_Inventions.jpg • Often, past on the left…current on the right. • Remember the spaces on the timeline should be even. For example if you want to span 200 years over 10 inches, every inch would be 20 years.

  24. 3/1/13 • Entry Task • Say Something Nice • Please turn in your entry task sheets!

  25. 3/4/13 • Entry Task • List THREE interesting people and their discoveries from the movie last week.
